gearbox oil maintainence

[Torturedglitch]

hello we have had a new gearbox fitted as it shat itself on the last trackday we did, and im sure that I heard changing the gearbox oil after every trackday can help prolong the life of the chocolate box anyone know if this is true or not? cheers

It certainly wouldn't do it any harm, but it's a bit excessive.

I'd say after every track day is excessive, however once a season is what I tend to do, so winter time job

As above once a season. With a very good quality gear oil.

Yupp as above, Ido mine once a.year

Don't skimp out on gear oil!

Cheap and nasty... Bye bye

you could try some of the redline heavy shock oil. Looks like fruity smoothie but it supposed to be pretty good at protecting a box if a lot of power/abuse is what it has to put up with.
